Getting up to date

Over the last couple months I've seen God do some incredible things. He's provided new friendships, new lessons, and a new schedule that will allows me to go to church on Sundays. They just recently started an evening service at New Life and I am helping with that which is just one of the ways I've been able to develop a circle of friends outside of my brother. Up to this point the majority of the people I spent time with were people he spent time with and that has started to change.

I think the one of the coolest things that has happened to me here is the many hours of time and effort I've put into encouraging others over the months and years is now coming back around full circle. People are giving back. One person blew me away when they told me that they would be praying for me and that the request I had shared they would share with two other people they had asked to pray for me! I keep receiving emails thinking me for my prayers and encouragement. That encourages me! I'm really hoping that the relationships I'm building now as well as others that were already there will last for eternity. It's an amazing time! Next to the Upper Peninsula (upper Michigan) this is in the top five of greatest things that have ever happened to me!
